addon works great, thanks for creating it!
most of the time the popup comes up well with the dynamic times for media.. but of course when you have netflix/amazon shows that have the multi-country credits where that alone can be several minutes long..
in perfect world if kodi had credit detection and you could use a marker to know when to fire off that would solve everything.. but of course that doesnt exist.
however, some assumptions might be able to be made if you know the tvshow airing network.
The amazon show "Upload" which avg runtime is 32mins, but credits are almost 3mins.
With the default "medium episodes (>20min)" of 40s, that means there is 180s of dead time.
Tweaking this value up solves on show but of course makes it too premature for others.
Would you be open to adding an option to multiply (user configurable, but maybe default to 2) the currently set dynamic times if a show falls within [amazon/network/other confirmed networks that do the long outros] networks?
As it would allow the popup to appear in a much more sensible time for those shows, and if a user did not like this they could of course just set to 1 to disable it.
crudely like:
So with the above example, if multiplier was set to 3, then for this show the popup would happen at 120s (40x3) which would reduce the dead time greatly.

crudely like:
Code:
if series.studio.lower() in ['prime video', 'prime studios', 'netflix', 'whatever']:
notification_time = notification_time * user_multiplierSo with the above example, if multiplier was set to 3, then for this show the popup would happen at 120s (40x3) which would reduce the dead time greatly.
